I know why your avoiding this hole you dug for yourself. Let's start again, we are talking about sunlight, as the rays come before they hit the baltic sea and reflect back to the atmosphere to form the supposed hotspot as you claimed.
Does any Atmospheric reflecting/refraction take place of those rays before they hit the baltic sea and reflect back as you claimed? Yes/NO, simple question requiring simple answer.
Your example about train tracks is a joke for the following reasons.
1. Train tracks are moving away from the observer, hence your viewing it as a receding parallel lines not as a perfect angle.
2. When looking towards the sun-beam you are getting a side shot view, hence viewing it from a perfect angle and not receding parallel lines.
3. The Sunbeams unlike the rail-track are NOT MOVING AWAY from the observer, but are viewed from a distance (side-view) thus the angle observed is always true.
In the wiki regarding the crepuscular light it's described as
"the rays are in fact near-parallel shafts of sunlight."
Notice "NEAR" Parallel!!!! they are basically telling you ITS NOT PARALLEL, I don't even't need to refute it myself, It's typical quackademic word play, they debunk themselves much the same way you dug your grave here.
